Clutch operating shaft bush

Post by maximillion »

Hi, just got the above of the bus, what a job!

Quick question:

It had a nylon bush in the gearbox / bellhousing with two rubbers each en, the bush has broke apart, the replacement i have is metal and no rubber supplied or space for it, a friction fit, is that correct or do i have the wrong kit? They all look like metal online from what i can see? It looks like it could be persuaded in to the gearbox and fits the new shaft??

Cheers

Just get the correct nylon bush and reuse the gland seals if ok or replace if split or gone weird due to oil etc. Brickwerks is cheapest for these parts and has the circlips
Unless the sleeve is from RJES ?

There are pattern replacement bushes that are all metal or the original nylon bush, but the rubbers are very hard to get.

Cheers, but i took a gamble in the end, the bronze bush fitted really well, all good so far?
